A little known feature of Twitter is that each and every "tweet", or message sent on the system, has a unique identifying number and that if you know that number, you can actually construct a URL that shows just that one message on the page.

The URLs look like this:

The Twitter account in question is FilmBuzz and the unique status update ID is 862509661.

But how did I figure that number out? Turns out that it's the time stamp on a Twitter message that links to the unique URL for that tweet, so in Twhirl, I clicked on the following:

As you can see, I'm going to click on the timestamp that says "about 7h ago", at which point Twhirl hands the URL to my Web browser, Flock, and I see:

The URL of that page tells me what I want to know, and I can now easily copy and paste that URL onto a Web page (like this!) or into an email message to some Beatles fans I know (or, perhaps, someone who is an Emerson, Lake and Palmer fan, one or the other).

Hope that helps. It certainly isn't an intuitive path to get the answer!
